I'm sorry Jerome but this issue has been discussed to death in the email
archives.  If you want to find out why OSTYPE and various other environment
variables are no longer set by default in bash, please check the email 
archives.  The reason and discussion is all there.  Let's keep the rehash
of this issue to a minimum, OK?

TIA,
